I bought an incubator recently online from Strombergs. I just bit the bullet and paid the $40.00 shipping. I bought the Brinsea Octogon and had a great hatch. I have way to many chickens right now so I'm trying really hard NOT to find any more hatching eggs.
I actually bought hatching eggs from a private seller. I thought we were on the same page as far as the required permitting but it turns out we were not. She really did go out of her way to help me even though the paperwork she sent was not really what I needed. I received the eggs with no problems. I think it's probably a hit or miss situation. Some unpermitted eggs will get through and some will not. I saw someone on BYC that was willing to do the permitting for Hawaii but required advance notice.
There is actually a lady on craigslist selling hatching eggs but I did not have much success. I just saw another posting for them a couple of weeks ago. I got some and didn't have much success but I also waited a week before putting them in. I do know that her chickens are young and just stared laying a few months ago.
Hope this helps. Let me know if you want more info.
